I’ve loved reading/watching your blog, and I’m very happy (for my sake!) that producing it is all part of your artistic process. I don’t feel like my own blog functions is the same way quite yet. But it’s a baby-blog and I’m still finding my voice on the internet, so hopefully there’s still time for me to fine tune what I’m doing. Thanks so sharing so much with us!

Thank you Adriana!

When I look back at my first posts now it’s like when they run the comics from the beginning of an artist’s career: I see very little elegance. And I suppose I’ll feel the same way about these current posts one day!

I enjoy your blog: it’s one of the few that I regularly check in with!

Perhaps one reason blogging can feel like the “antidote” to art is that blogging involves words and painting usually doesn’t. Being a writer, I’ve found that my “antidote” to making written art is wordless activities like playing an instrument or even washing the dishes. In the same way, maybe you need blogging to balance out the high volume of wordless activities in your life. Just an idea. I love you blog and have found a lot of insight here.

Very true! My favorite break from painting is reading. I think that also has to do with wanting to do some inputting after doing a lot of outputting.
